| Abstract. | Problem statement. The aim of the study is to identify the main trends and principles of the architectural organization of modern palliative care centers. The research objectives are: define tendencies and specificity of architectural planning and functional solutions in hospices, formulate and practically apply architectural principles of their organization. To solve the problems, the analysis of modern domestic and foreign practice of architectural design and construction of hospices was carried out; as well as, analysis of theoretical works and review articles. Results. The following trends in the architectural design and organization of hospices were revealed: the humanization of the hospice complex, including ensuring the patients stay with relatives and friends, the formation of a comfortable environment for communication and isolation, attention to the aesthetic environment and the emotional impact of the environment; the formation of a home environment; spatial clarity; universal design; inclusion in the complex of spaces for social, spiritual and religious support.

The principles were applied by the authors in the new adult hospice in Kazan. Conclusions.
